Daily Routine is a go-to for time management and keeping track of self but hacking daily routine for time management is something you ought to do for the purpose of proper drive. In traditional daily routine, it’s often time vs. activity i.e. activity is matched with certain time with fixture.

Traditional Daily Routine

While this approach is okay to start with, I felt a major defect in the system. I tried to schedule my day in similar manner but the first day after planning I woke up at 7:45AM which was 45 mins after the targeted time. This left me depressed and not continuing or finishing up with the schedule. It’s not that I quit at the very first day, I tried for a week but minor delays was somehow affecting the whole flow.

After watching myself suffer with schedule which in alternative should be helping me, I started thinking that the time was not and should not be more important than my mental calmness, the sense of satisfaction. Hence, the alternative approach I came up with was valuing tasks based on the time it would take rather than fixed time frame.

Well, yeah! This doesn’t look much different approach then the earlier version but the feeling is lot more different. Wake up 10 minutes, 30 minutes or 40 minutes late than you planned to and still get the things done as you need to, feeling happy as a seal and getting the sense of achievement. No depression, no feeling bad, and not that much of rush either.

This is the hack I came up for my daily routine to do better time management yet being happy. Further, I divided the chunks into every morning, every evening and every night. Then wrote the sum of time the activities each division would take. Tie it up with Pomodoro Technique, and you should be catching up with Productivity Drive in no time.

Below is the picture of how my wall is framed with these activities, time and it’s division.

Hope this helps you as a life hacker and would love to hear your feedback on the approach and if you have better ideas and/or suggestion since I believe that Learning is Endless.

Don’t you want to earn money without having to work for? Planning to start investing but don’t have enough money? Well, I think share is a great idea. I do believe we can make more out of share just by understanding it in depth. These videos helped me a lot in clearing the idea about share and investment. I’ve made short notes of these videos to help me memorize hope it will be helpful.

I’ve been tired of working 9 hrs a day for money. I have an extreme desire of not having to think about money while spending. But I won’t be able to fulfill my desire if I go on doing what I’m doing and how I’m doing it. That’s the reason why I haven’t been able to get financial freedom.
